You managed to pronounce all of the character names wrong. That's no easy feat! Good review though.
I thought the same thing. For a long time fan that isn't too believable. Then again it may be a VA reading a review
This is a japanese game, so unless u pronounce it with japanese accent and romaji format, technically, we all pronounce the named wrong. :p
@@Sing4orMe or we pronounce the names the way the announcer pronounced them..
@Crimsonite20 sophisha
The Narrator literally pronounces every name in every game. How people still chop it up is beyond me.
Can you make another video just reading off Soul Calibur character names? Please?
i second this
Tacky, Jengwah, Sufficia, Taleem, Sauceolimel, and Seeyong Meenaah. 😍
Spectacular Spider-Man Yo I died at “Sauce-O-lim-el”
Also Ziegfried, Cervantis
LMAO precisely
LMFAOOOOO
Pretty sure Siegfried is supposed to be pronounced Zigfreed and Taki, Tacky according to the countries those names are from.
Good review but how on Earth did you pronounce EVERY name wrong!? lol
because hes never played it
Transcending history and the world, a tale of mispronounced names has recently been told.
10/10 parody
Lmfao
the best line in parody history!
Call my girl “tacky” one more time.
But good review otherwise.
There's something bizarre about fully grown males who want to roleplay as busty hentai sluts and even identify with them.
@@pygmalioninvenus6057 wait what
XD TACKY!
@@pygmalioninvenus6057 are you ok dude? Do you need to see a therapist with all that baggage?
@@pygmalioninvenus6057 It's an anime avatar does not represent anything
What drugs do i need to take in order to mispronounce my main's name this bad
Depends, who's your main's name? (Mine is obvious)
It really doesn't, he musta fucked up like 100% of the names he referenced
badly*
@@npplscorpion I thought all of the Nazis died? Guess not
he doesn't even qualify, as neither word is more appropriate than the other
Namco surpasses capcom for fighting games this generation
I agree. Though, it wouldn't have been that difficult seeing as how Capcom has been botching their releases this gen.
Same with nrs
to be fair, everyone has surpassed capcom after....you know
I can't😂😂😂😂
Facts
I'm so confused as to how you can mispronouce the names when each character's respective trailer says their name.
Zeegfreed, Taleem, Takky, Sofeesha, Sauce-ALL-imel, see young mee nah, Jengwah...
Tah-Key = Taki
So-fee- tea-ah = Sophitia
Zass-ah-la-mell =Zasalamel
Zhang-hua = Xianghua
Tacky, gengwah, suficia, Tahleem, sasalahmel, song minaah. Lmao. 😭😭
Don't forget 'Ziegfried.'
Fucking Voldo hahaha 3:10
Since Soulblade 1
@Xavier Roberts no that's Maxi your thinking of (seriously, namco confirmed it)
Hehe, he said ‘but cracks’
...As much as I get the joke, unless you're Deadpool in disguise, I recommend finding different jokes to make.
You mispronouncing the names bothered me so much
This looks like a bogus review. He just listed everything that's been mentioned periodically on the official Bandai Namco youtube channel and even used footage from multiple videos
Awesome review!! Soul Calibur 6 Gets a 9/10 😃👏
Literally every comment mentioning the name pronunciations, but how is no one gonna comment that he went the entire video without showing Ivy ONCE! Dude, you anti-thicc or something??
travistotle he did though.
did you even get a review copy? looks like you're recycling existing footage
glad that jorgo is party of this review.
Omg in another note thank You for explaining the reversal edge. Your like the only one who explained it button for button. THANK YOU
How can people praise the character creation in this game? In the previous games, the main characters had alternate costumes which were all items that could be used in character creation. The lizardman build even had uniqueness to it with the ability to customize head frills, horns, and other things. You could build your version of Nightmare. This new game's is comparable to scraps. What's worse is they give you all of these new "races" that are nothing more than skins or humans with item permanence (like the devils with wings and tails). They have these cool little bios that hint at abilities but will you ever get those powers? No. It's an empty promise, a "wouldn't that be cool." Aside from that, the game is fine. It doesn't do enough to feel like the series has grown at all, though. Just a nice memory of playing SC in the arcades. At least with the last one, they were trying to be more (though I can gripe about that game as well).
You butchered those names so famously I actually died laughing
I want more guest characters in this game, maybe Dante or Nero?
2B from nier automata
Dante was meant to be a guest for SC2 but... Licensing issues
Dante from Devil May Cry, or Dante from Dante’s Inferno?
WAR BLACKJACK If the names Dante and Nero are next to each other I’d assume DMC.
Link was good in 2
I didn't know I needed this game in my life. I played SC 1 and 2 and stopped because i heard the others just couldn't compete but my soul is burning for this one.
This one got it right, focused on the core fast simple gameplay but presenting it with modern technology. Something the newer Doom games really benefitted from too.
Cant wait to finish work on Friday at 8am then go stand out front of my local gamestore until they open and buy it
Heresy and treason
Amazon > Local Gamestore, especially if it's a Gamestop you're talking about
Clockworklemon
Im getting it digitally through psn Friday morning at 12am.
Then 3 hours later daredevil s3 releases.
Going to be a damn good weekend.
Wot, it comes out tomorrow on PC though, at 3pm-ish Pacific Standard Time (or Daylight Savings, don't really remember)
I'll be whipping out dat Wizard Lizard (type into RUclips Soulcalibur 6 Wizard Lizard), was an Official 'reveal' by Gamespot if I remember. It's truly the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
Fuck these comments, all complaining about the most minor aspect of the video. The pronunciation issues are perfectly excusable given the foreign and weird names in the game.
This was easily the best soulcalibur 6 review I've seen yet. Explained the new mechanics without sacrificing the critical focus and mentioned the aspects the audience cares about thoroughly, all without a distracting and arbitrary score used to compensate for explanation and cross-genre game comparison. It's a shame a quality review (increasingly rare) is looked over due to a simple unimportant error
I'm both happy and sad he didn't mention my boy Yun Seong. Because I'm sad he was left out, but happy his name couldn't be butchered.
But also great review. I'm happy I preordered.
Nothing better than soulblade on ps1 and soulcalibur on the sega dreamcast,this soulcalibur VI i got to try
Definitely, man was hooked playing the beta reminded me of the old days on Dreamcast with the stages they recreated and the fast pace fighting. But also with some nice visuals and sick looking moves.
Soul Blade was revolutionary, yet no one even knows about it I feel like. I still play it sometimes to this day. SC2 on the PS2 was just a more polished version of that with some extra stances in there, and it quickly became my favorite fighting game. Something about being able to chain multiple abilities through multiple stances just made for some awesome game play. I tried the beta, played against sweaty mofos constantly while I knew like 3 or 4 old classic moves haha.
Who are these characters you're talking about? Never heard of them 😂
Not even your footage, how about you go review a game you have actually played.
It's not? *Facepalm*
Do you even play soul cal. This review does not even say anything about the game.
He mentioned character names (badly) so he's said something about the game...
Nothing about this review suggests he actually even played this game, just mispronounced a bunch of names, used a bunch of other people's footage, and talked generically about the series. This seems super suspect, honestly.
Ikr! I can at least provide a review of the online beta with accurate information! (If anyone wants to read it, I'm more than willing to)
How so?
@@warblackjack5565 who are you referring to?
Holy shit that LadyM custom character looked great, definitely gonna have to pick up Groh now.
Love how lady M is Maria from bloodbourne, Good review hitting core features and gameplay
THIS IN AN INCREDIBLE REVIEW VERY DETAILED!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
JORGO 4LYF!!!
Man i mean i usually don't care about pronunciations but this was gave me a knee slap and a chuckle.
Came here to hear this guy read the roster!! 😅😅😅
'Shyong Meen-R'
That a DLC character?
I've never heard the names being said like that before ...
I grew up on this series and I'm enjoying this installment WAY MORE then SCV. But My biggest issues are the Day-1 DLC b.s and the fact that it feels most of the development focas was strictly centered around character creation.
I get that the team is trying to appeal to new players and casual fans which is smart, but it's the die-hard player that keep games in relevancy these days. The two different styles of story mode aren't exactly bad and they're better than SCV in terms of story and overall writing easily. But the actual now it's themselves just sort of feel rushed and shoehorned in. As for the gameplay it's feels solid but offline has a noticeable input delay at and times Online feels more responsive. (Seriously, no joke. go try it) gameplay is fast enough so you're on your toes and ready to counter attack or dodge when needed. Soundtrack is solid and the visuals are beautiful. I'm at least glad Zasalamel, Voldo, & Raphael are here though I'm having a blast using those three like old times. The game isn't perfect, but it's better then SCV ever was.
"Welcome back to the stage of History."
Them name pronunciations hurt my soul
Reversal edge sucks. I can't tell you the amount of leads I lost on somebody because they abused that shit and got lucky. I'd rather lose to pure skill than luck. I may as well go to the casino.
I'll take the 9 score, but uh what's with the pronunciations?
Havent played a soul calibur since 3. I may pick this up.
I actually own the game. If you did too, you would know that the character creation options in SC6 are inferior to SC5. They took a lot of options out. It is NOT an improvement to remove options in favor of new "races." In fact, the new races don't have their own options... They have drastically reduced options when compared to their human counterparts. The fact remains that when Baindai Namco gets their grimy hands on a project, they take nice things from their customers... Every time.
I heard that the developer made a statement saying that, " If people don't buy the game and it flops, this will likely be the last Soul Calibur game." I am not okay with that. Apparently they had to fight tooth and nail to get this game greenlit. Which is really sad because with it's character creator, and other modes, I find this franchise to be the best fighting game I have ever played. I have been playing since SC2, and it makes me sad to think that this may be the last game. :(
This is before Kilik wore a necklace.
I'm so excited to pick up my pre-ordered copy on the 19th.
I’m so happy that Talim is back! Whohoo!
your pronunciation of those character name made me cringe so hard, i had a stroke..
We need Hwang or Yun Seong.
Somebody sent this to Max & IGN on Twitter and he wrote back saying they are looking into the copied footage. Fran said they might look into royalty compensation.
A Chronicles of the Sword contemporary is present?
I'm all in.
This is best gameplay explanation I heard for fighting game system
DOES YOUR SOUL STILL BURN?! YASSSS
Wish they would bring back Chronicles of the Sword mode Namco brought back Tekken Bowl from the original Tekken Tag Tournament.
Is that maxamilian dude’s creat-a-character in the beginning?
"Sazala mel"
WHAT LOL
I just preloaded my PC copy.. cant wait for tomorrow night to play! the libra of souls mode sounds so good
Wtf.... what about Geralt??? THE WITCHER??? HOW DID YOU JUST NOT MENTION IT??
IKR.
Sc5 didn't have guard impact. And no I don't count the use of a gauge to guard impact a real guard impact
The generic character select screen for Arcade mode makes no sense. If you get the good select screen in taraining and in the other modes. Why not have it in all the modes? Also, the fact that the character's second original costume isn't available by default drives me nuts.
an in depth mechanical review of a fighting game? am i dreaming
Gaming bolt i usually liked your vid.. thats no more why havent you talked about the anticonsumer dlc with this game locking characters out and content thats already on the disc for you to pay more.. you got paid off
I don't understand the praise for the character creator. Sure you can make lizard men or whatever but they took away over 200 items from 5 not including dlc and only added about 40 new items I believe and nothing to unlock, I used to always fill out the character slots in these games with my own original cast but after only making 7 people im running out ofnmatirral to make everyone unique
My copy just got shipped can't wait
This game looks good, but it just doesn't blow the mind the way the dreamcast version did.
i mean... you cant recreate nostalgia...
Someone who played the game wrote an essay for it. Then a narrator read it separately. After that, the video producer added all of the clips to the audio. Viola, there you have your average youtube game review. That's how almost every character name got mispronounced.
Is Soul Calibur 6 a beginner freindly game? Cause im not good at fighting games...
"All the right characters are back."
*Aeon MIA*
Soul calibur 4 is the best of the franchise in my opinion
No Yun-Seong, No Rock, No Cassandra, Hopefully they will be DLC later 😑
Wtf is the backgrounds blurred in this game!!!!?
My man JORGO, lol.
I was thinking about picking this up but after this video i do not plan on ever playing this game.
Soul calibur and tekken are brothers.
I only came here to see if anyone else has complained about the lack of cutscenes, but all I found were mispronounced name comments. :/
Tal eeeeeeeeeeeeem !!!!
It is said he has a side job being a substitute teacher
Before watching, i honestly hope it's good. I loved soul caliber 2. I tried to love 3 n 4.... passed on 5
When does the game come out??
hell yeah my boy jorgo is in this game
That’s what I want soulcalibr 2 weapon master mode with create a character. Weapon master had an original story but it was missing something, that something was it need the Create a Character to make the opponents more unique. It was fun but I just didn’t like fighting a character model when they were meant to be an ogre all character to the weapon master mode
Lady Maria?!? Nice build man.
How do you say names bad? I guess you don't play Soul Calibur II.
Saul Calibur sounds great
3:10 who is that character called LadyM..? is she supposed to be lady maria from bloodborne..? (total soulcalibur noob)
You can block a reversal edge if its not fully charge.
This is a great game..
😂😂😂
Tacky, Saucesalamail, Taleeeem, Zhongwa.
Edit Zwigfreed! XD
Is the narrator a gamer or just hired to narrate?
Possibly both. (There are places that do that) He's probably just not a SC player. He was probably given a script to read and that's it.
I luv the SC series just bought this game, SC4 felt like the weakest of the lot and only real thing it had going for it was the Starwars dlc characters. I dont know what mode to play first though, main story? Or Libra of Soul??
in arcade mode..is there character endings?
If you want “The Orginal” story play soul blade.
So hyped for this game!! 2 days to go!!
Sophicha? IT'S SO-PHI-TIA!!!!! dork
I disagree with a few of your assessments of the gameplay mechanics. Everything else looks encouraging. I'd say reversal edge forces a simplification of gameplay and I don't care for it much. It's not too bad though since you can dodge it or outrange it provided it is kept as a mid range vertical. If namco chooses to give some characters more than that, it alone could create a noob character situation. Also the series has never lacked for defensive options. I'd argue scv had better options outside of requiring meter for the GI. Just guard was a good defensive option as, while requiring more skill than the other defensive options, it also allowed for higher reward. Not to mention the 8 way run which you earlier praised as the games depth is a defensive option that cannot be overlooked.
So I guess maybe reversal edge fills the role of "easy to use without being good at the game, but not game breaking, noob friendly option"
Reversal Edge is trash unless you play flow charty and just press buttons in people face.
So, Soul Blade(Edge) is just a forgotten game?
"No matter who you play as," I will always mispronounce their name.
